This committee was appointed by the Commonwealth Government in December 1956 with Sir Keith Murray, chairman of the University Grants Committee in the United Kingdom, as chairman, to inquire into and report upon the needs of Australian university education. While the committee was in Victoria, the Government obtained its special recommendations upon the early establishment of a second university in the State. The University bears the name of Sir John Monash, a Victorian of great distinction. A biographical note on him appears on page 11. In June 1958 an Interim Council, appointed under the transitory provisions of the Monash University Act 1958 and charged with the duty of taking "all such steps as may be necessary in order that the Council of the University may be duly constituted upon the appointed day", held its first meeting. The site of 250 acres at Clayton was ac­ quired and with the advice of architects a master plan for its develop­ ment was adopted. The Vice-Chancellor, Registrar, and the first Professor took up duty early in 1960. Rapid progress with the buildings and the appointment of additional staff leading to the development of the teaching pro­ gramme enabled the opening of the University in its permanent quarters by the Premier of Victoria on 11 March 1961. This was three years earlier than originally envisaged. Teaching began with an enrolment of 363 undergraduates and graduates in the faculties of Arts, Economics and Politics, Engineering, Medicine, and Science. The Interim Council, having discharged its duty, was replaced by the permanent Council on 3 July 1961. Enrolments rose to 798 in 1962, 2,923 in 1964 and to 8,466 in 1968. The enrolment figure in 1974 is expected to be 12,800. It is hoped to house as many full-time students as possible in halls of residence, the first of which was opened in 1962. A faculty of Law was established in 1964 when graduate studies in education were also introduced. The faculty of Education was formally constituted in 1965. The University offers the degrees of Bachelor, Master, Doctor of Philosophy, and higher Doctorates, as well as graduate diplomas in education and microbiology. Its first Bachelor degrees were conferred at the beginning of the 1964 academic year. The University's funds are derived in the main from the Australian Government, which finances all recurrent and capital expenditure and 9 10 MONASH UNIVERSITY CALENDAR a major part of research expenditure (either directly or through government-financed institutions). SIR JOHN MONASH General Sir John Monash was born on 27 June 1865 at West Mel­ bourne of German-Polish, Jewish parents. He was educated until the age of twelve at local schools at Richmond and Jerilderie, where his father kept a store. He then attended Scotch College, Melbourne, for four years and was equal dux of the school in 1881. He entered the University of Melbourne in 1882 but after two years had to con­ tinue part-time because of financial hardship. In 1895 he had completed degrees in Arts, Engineering, and Law and had also qualified as a municipal surveyor, an engineer of water-supply and a patent attorney. In 1894 he began private practice as a civil engineer, specializing in the new techniques of reinforced concrete, and in the following twenty years prospered from railway- and bridge-building especially. Monash had joined the militia in 1884 and was commissioned in 1887; by 1913 he was commanding a brigade. On the outbreak of war in 1914 he took command of the 4'th Brigade, A.I.F., and served with it throughout the Gallipoli campaign and in France in 1916. He then became major-general commanding the 3rd Division until May 1918 when he was given charge of the Australian Corps. Monash planned the battle of Hamel, in which tanks were first used with com­ plete success, and the Australian Corps led the breakthrough of 8 August 1918, the "black day of the German Army". At the close of the war Monash's reputation stood extraordinarily high; many who were in a position to judge considered him the foremost military commander on the Allied side. He was also a general who detested war but who took fierce pride in the achievements of the Australians as an inde­ pendent force. In 1919 Monash carried out the repatriation and demobilization of the Australian forces in Europe. In 1920 he accepted the general managership of the new State Electricity Commission of Victoria and in 1921 became full-time chairman of the Commission.
